Penalty for this or not?
 
This has been discussed somewhat in other threads.

I worked with a very good rules guy last night and we differed when discussign a hypothetical situation. Here goes.

A1 inbounding on a SPOT throw-in. B1 defending the thrower. A1 is well behind the line and releases the throw. B1 reaches through the plane after the ball is released and touches the pass (or grabs it).

I say there is no rule making this illegal. The rule speaks of a ball being passed outside the line to a teammate (not a spot throw-in) and reaching through BEFORE the ball is released. He was certain that this was a violation.

Can anyone answer with certainty?

9-2-10 I believe

The violation section (9-2-x -- I' maway from the books) specifically says "until the ball has been released on an inbounds pass."

9-2-10

ART. 10. . . The opponent(s) of the thrower shall not have any part of his/her
person through the inbounds side of the throw-in boundary-line plane until the
ball has been released on a throw-in pass.
NOTE: The thrower may penetrate the plane provided he/she does not touch the inbounds
area before the ball is released on the throw-in pass. The opponent in this situation may
legally touch or grasp the ball.

If the thrower extends his arms through the plane while holding the ball and the defender grabs the ball such that both are holding the ball, what is the proper call? Is it a held ball or is it out-of-bounds on the thrower?

Held ball. and the arrow (if applicable) hasn't changed, since the throw-in never ended, so it's essentially a do-over.

So we agree that reaching through and touching a ball AFTER release on a spot throw-in is NOT a violation?

I hope so, that's pretty clear in the rules.

Just wanting to be clear. I had a three hour drive home last night on ice-covered roads and I'm not thinking real clear yet. ;)

Ouch. I understand.

That's true for NFHS games.
The rule is different at the NCAA level. The defender must wait until the ball breaks the boundary plane.
I've posted this difference several times on this forum. If you do a search, you can locate one of the past threads.

I'm thinking that your partner also works at the NCAA level. That would explain his confusion.

To be clear, in this situation team A would only maintain possession if this was an AP throw-in or if A had the arrow. If this was not an AP throw-in and B had the arrow, team B would get the ball. Correct??

Correct. It's a held ball.

Ouch. You were one of the few who had a game last night. If I would have known, I would have rode along with you.

I didn't have one last night. I'm not sure where Illini_Ref worked.
